    FF has put me at ov on CD 13 as I had very faint positives on my opks CD11 and 12 and then negatives CD13 and 14. Temp also started to rise on CD13. This puts me at 9DPO

    However I had my only day of EWCM on CD16 so it's saying that I could have ov'd CD16-18 which would be between 4 and 6DPO:undecided
    What do you think? (You know your body best:cool:)
    Was it really ewcm on CD16? (Not remains of BD?).
    I have a lot of open circles for my temps because I wake up a fair bit in the night and so if I wake up less than three hours before my alarm goes off (6:15) I temp. I'm still not sure whether temping at the same time every day or after more than three hours sleep is best (I know at the same time after three hours or more is best but my body clock won't allow that) - FF is a bit vague on this.
    Temps are not exact science:o
    Don't worry too much, relax and PMA!:)

    I'm not sure. I spent so long having artificial hormones controlling my body that I think I've forgotten what it feels like at different stages of the month! :o
    I didn't record any ov pains or cramps until CD16 and after so maybe it was then?
    I'm almost certain it was EWCM, I had a good look online at pictures (eww! :rotfl:) and that's what it looked like- it was quite clear and stretchy (sory TMI!).
    We BD'd around both days so it should be ok.

    I'm just going to forget about it, not much I can do now but wait! :)

    If we are not lucky this month then it will have to be a March baby, which will be nice because our anniversary is March! :)
    PMA! PMA! PMA! PMA!

    Afternoon all,

    No news hear on the TTC front, as AF is still here.

    Feeling quite stressed, and IBS has kicked in, as I started at my new job today, and there is so much to get my head around. Feeling really nervous about meeting the parents, and one of my colleagues seems to be quite sarcastic, and I'm not sure how to take him yet (the person I'm taking over from doesn't like him). TA seems nice, but I'm a bit scared of the deputy head, who is also our year leader.

    Keeping my fingers crossed that it will all turn out ok, and that I'll feel a bit better about it all by the end of tomorrow.

    Hugs for all on CD1 today.

    Enjoy the little things, for one day you may look back and realize they were the big things.

    That's what I'm thinking! Fingers crossed BD was early enough.

    Just had a quick look at your chart (I think it's yours! ;) ) you haven't entered any data yet have you?

    This is what FF says about starting your chart:

    "Getting Started: A fertility chart, like your menstrual cycle, starts on cycle day 1 (CD1). This is the first day of your period (full red flow, not spotting). You may wish to begin charting at the beginning of your next cycle. If you choose to start before your next period (many people don't want to wait!) make sure that cycle day one on your fertility chart reflects day one of your last cycle, the first day of your last menstrual cycle (LMP)."

    So you need to add you AF for however many days she lasted at the beginning of your cycle. Hopefully then it will let you add data for today then.

    You should be receiving emails from FF about different aspects of charting, which I would recommend reading (I think they send a new one every day for about 20 days). I found them extremely good at helping me to understand how it works.

    Evening all,

    Hugs to all that need them,

    Feeling like carp today, had a carppy week at work and had enough now. Looks like the job I was going for may be deferred (which is fine) but now having a big hoohaa about a mistake I made, had to do a big statement explaining what had happened and even though plenty of other people and depts contributed to it because I initiated it I am now headed for a big kicking. I put forward my case and what happened, and flagged that my working week has gone from5 to 3 with an increase in workload I am getting an even harder going over. So much for HR following the rules hey.

    Nevermind, no more tears this week. Off to GP tomorrow as now must be CD90+ and no AF since TTC.

    Pants week is an understatement.

    Sorry for venting and not acknowledgeing all you lovely ladies, I know we are all going through a tough time with TTC (some more than others) but have no one else to talk to.

    Rant over
